[MCPE-39368] Corrupted textures of items and blocks

Without apparent reason the textures of items and blocks are converted into black blocks.

Begins with items and finally make the world unplayable because all blocks are black, ,even torches and all blocks of light :'(.

My phone is a GoMobile 504.

Reported GPUs include Mali-400 MP and several Adreno models.

To users searching for this bug

There are currently two unrelated bugs having similar symptoms of dark shadows:

MCPE-39439 describes a bug that causes unusually dark but still gradual shadows. It can be worked around by momentarily placing a torch or other light source in the shadowed area, or by any action that would cause a lighting update such as breaking blocks above the shadow to expose it to the sky light.
This bug causes fully black shadows with sharp edges, even right next to a light source. Placing a torch does not correct this problem.

It's true. Effects to me too. My tablet is Lenovo tab 2 a7-30hc Android 5.0.1 GPU is Mali-400 MP

It begins slowly with shadows. Like shadows of trees. Then the blocks and then all the game worlds turn black (it means this effects all worlds) but I didn't re reach to item part 😃

Does this issue only happen after resuming the game?

Windows 10, 1.9.0.3 has a similar bug

Auldrick 2018-12-07T22:50:07Z

I have seen the Win10 smooth lighting bug, but I'm not sure it's the same thing. This report seems to say that the darkness spreads farther over time, which I haven't seen in Win10 using 1.9.0.3. The Win10 bug is also easily correctable by placing a torch or other light source in or near the dark area.

For those experiencing this bug, does placing a light source in the dark area make the lighting look normal again, even after you then remove the light source?

No, torches don't solve the problem. This bug is ilke a overpowered version of the bug that you mentioned.

Affects 1.8.0

Auldrick 2018-12-12T22:04:03Z

@unknown I don't think it does, I think that's the smooth lighting bug in shadows. This problem affects the tops of blocks exposed to the sky, and placing a torch in the shadow doesn't correct it. If you have an example of that in 1.8.0, please provide a screenshot.

Were there are lighting glitches in the trees, try placing a torch next to it to update the light level

Taylor Reed 2018-12-18T14:58:23Z

I am seeing this on Xbox One 1.9.0.3. I have been playing split screen, and the bug comes and goes randomly for one player at a time. It didn't seem to happen very often when I first created this world last week, but now after a few days of play time it is nearly constant. I have attached some examples of how it appears normal on one screen and bugged on the other. Also, I tried disabling all of the graphics options such as smooth lightning and the problem still occurred.

Samsung J2 prime is my phone

Can reproduce on Google/Huawei Nexus 6P, Android 8.1, Minecraft 1.9.0.3 beta.

My symptoms are the same as MCPE-39428: sometimes, when entering a world, all blocks are black (in inventory, in hand, and in the world). Items and mobs render normally. This happens about once in 20 times.

Exiting and reopening the world fixes the issue. Backgrounding and then resuming Minecraft also fixes the issue.

I securely can say that this bug is not the legendary illumination bug that all we know of ever because in some cases even the torches are converted in black blocks.

HLZ 2019-01-14T02:05:21Z

This happens to me, I play Minecraft PE on a LG Harmony, and its a Adreno model and runs Android 7.0

HLZ 2019-01-14T02:07:12Z

And the version of Minecraft I have is 1.9.0.4

Nixoli Watcher 2019-01-14T02:14:01Z

I also get this bug in my Galaxy J3 2016. Im in the latest (non beta) update

Jonathan5733 2019-01-14T03:17:57Z

I was able to get three LG Android phones with this issue, their specs are:

G6, purchased in 2017, running Android 8.0 Oreo, using a Quad-core Qualcomm (MSM8996) Snapdragon 821, with an Adreno 530 GPU

K10, purchased in 2016, running Android 7.0 Nougat, using a Quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 210, with an Adreno 306 GPU

V20, also purchased in 2016, running Android 8.0, Oreo, using a Quad-core Qualcomm (MSM8996) Snapdragon 820, with the same GPU as the G6 I tested

All tested with 1.9.0.3 and 1.9.0.5

Windows 10 PC Bedrock v.1.17.40.23 Beta has this problem, see screenshots. This could be the bug described by MCPE-58182.

GoldenHelmet 2021-10-05T23:58:20Z

Rather, it fits MCPE-39439.
